my room is a makeshift room with reasonable light control, the pj must be about 2.5 m from the screen on a stand showing a 93" diagonal image. 2 people sit either side of the projector with 2 people standing behind it ( strange but we prefer split screen COD gaming and limited movie use)

the 1070 was actually great ( even though the screen is a bedsheet for now!!) no noise worries as i have a over head fan directly above the pj and a side pedastal fan to keep the ps3 cool. so noise is not a worry for us. sitting quietly even in movies is not our stong point anyway.

the speaker.. well because we just play for fun.. and are use to a 50" plasma hd sound and make more noise than a mob of yelling idiots we actually liked the 1070 sound..so the 1070+ for us will be even better.. yes we are strange but the reason for a pj was to have a bigger screen.. nothing more, no way we will sit back in our recliners sipping chardonay enjoying the ambience of twin coned wofflers wofferling.. blah blah.

2 things really annoyed me

the lense cover... really s***s me off. but the killer is THE REMOTE.. now i got the w1300 remote with my 1070 WHAT A JOKE

we are all in our 50's and all agreed this was a waste of time. backlit was worse than without the light!.. so it went back. i will order the 1070+ once i see the new releases this january. i want the benq but for a group of old farts.. just playing cod splitscreen.. and a downloaded movie once a week its the small things that are important.

for the $160 extra i seem to be getting.. slightly better pq. slightly quieter (not important).. mhl (usefull0.. speaker (probably better0.. remote (hope better).. if not then this too will be returned

Not sure why a remote would be such a killer for someone that only wants to play games and the odd movie and says only reason for PJ is larger screen but anyway why don't you get a Logitech harmony 650? I doubt the remote on the + will be much different .
